   Esmé Louise James is a writer and researcher based in Melbourne, Australia. She is a PhD candidate at the University of Melbourne in the School of Culture and Communication. 

   In 2020, Esmé was listed in the Top 30 Emerging Writers by SBS Australia. Esmé’s creative works have twice been nominated for a Fitzpatrick Award and she was a finalist for the Melbourne Arts Student’s Society’s ‘Creative Writing’ award for four consecutive years. The Awakening was shortlisted for Amazon’s Breakthrough Novel of the Year in 2013. 

   Esmé is best known for her irreverent lecture series on TikTok, Kinky History, which explores the evolution of human sexual history -- "the history they didn't teach you in high school." It currently stands at a following of over 2,200,000 people. In 2021, she was the recipient of Screen Australia's Every Voice initiative (in partnership with TikTok Australia and the Australian Government) to fund the creation of a new series on her channel. Created alongside her mother, SexTistics will teach how statistics can be used to create a snapshot - past and present - of gender, identity, and sexuality within Australia.
